HILLARD, Ohio, Nov. 2 (UPI) -- President Barack Obama told supporters in Ohio Friday GOP nominee Mitt Romney is trying to scare auto workers with an ad two U.S. automakers have called false.

Obama attacked a Romney radio ad that accused the administration of selling out Chrysler employees, CNN reported. The ad says the president sold the company to Italians -- the Italian automaker Fiat is now the majority owner -- who plan to move Jeep production from the United States to China.

“If O was really winning OH, why would he book 3 trips there? Isnt he ahead?”

I tend to think that too, unless he knows it’s the only state he now needs and wants to keep it locked up. But the fact he is going there a lot more than Romney does speak to it being good news for Mitt.

None of the major pollsters want to make any election predictions on the POTUS race!!! They know their polls are skewed, and, as such are all over the landscape. So........the safe play is, keep your mouth shut, and when the race is determined, then come forward with your brillant CYA input.

Actually, no one has a grip on this race!!! So....just forget about any poll and go out and vote Romney/Ryan!!! End of story!!!

Sounds like a victory lap. :( man, and i thought i had to check myself not to be a concern troll, you sir all over the place today. Ohio is competitive that is why obama is there. It probably helps that he is going to end the campaign in Iowa and Ohio is on the way from the Hurricane photo ops. Many people who play with the numbers also believe that Ohio has one of the greatest chances of ROI, meaning just swaying one person in ohio will have a bigger impact than any other state (except Nevada, that one is going to be crazy).

(it was not meant that we should voyage far.)

Obama’s team has been pushing his supporters to vote early to get the big mo’ going. It ain’t going and Romney is winning the early vote by 7 points across the board. Nothing this guy does is working. Every day the drip, drip, drip of Benghazi is getting worse. Ed Henry reporting that signs along the streets are pounding the Benghazi scandal.

That probably describes about 55% of the population. I doubt there are 40% right now desperate for Obama to win. Romney/Ryan is done in Florida, Virginia, North Carolina. They are finishing in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Minnesota. Obama and Biden are drawing thousands. Romney and Ryan are drawing tens of thousands. I feel pretty good about Tuesday.

If 0bama had Ohio sewn up, he’d be in Florida. If he wasn’t worried about Wisconsin, he’d be in North Carolina. The fact is, long ago 0bama wrote off a number of states he carried in 2008. He’s been playing defense for the past month, trying to hold onto states that he thought were safe. He’s not playing defense by choice, but by necessity.

If he wins this time, it’s going to be a narrow margin, and probably by fraud. Nobody is predicting a substantial 0bama win. Based on where he’s playing defense and Romney is playing offense, it could be a substantial win for Romney.

Oh, I plan to, unless I manage to find another job and will be working that day. I have first-hand experience of Obama as POTUS with the loss of my 30-year old recently. Having him re-elected will be salt on the wounds.

I have never known an election in modern times where the incumbent, that is supposedly as or more popular than their last election, could not easily pack in large crowds at a stop. People want to be around a winner, especially a sitting president that was popular.

If and only if the 2008 models are the true ones, this will be a tight race and either man could win. I think the Chik-fil-a model is more likely...although I think that pollsters for the most part are afraid of using it because bias against the right is safer than bias agains the left in terms of being marginalized by the main stream press.
